You're right that "Lisp Machines" refer to a very peculiar point in time, available to only a very small number of people.

The article even mentions: > This was all accurate as of around 2018, but please be aware that things may have changed since then!

There's no reason this should appear on the frontpage of a "news" site.

Based on the age of your account, you're new here, so...for better or worse, things that aren't "News" regularly are popular on Hacker News. Even if it's not new, it's can still be new to one of the lucky 10,000.
